The answer is truly “it depends”. If you want the best set for your game you really need to get fitted by a professional. The will check your swing and fit you for all the proper characteristics. Price doesn’t mean the best for your game. Go with a pro’s advice.With no other info I would say Mizuno makes the very best clubs but that does not mean they are the best for your game. go get fitted by a pro. it wil only cost you about $20 max (free if you buy from them) and will be totally worth the time spent. Enjoy!

New low.

Why do you even post a picture with A-rod’s kid pulling on A-rod’s ex’s shirt ?

I said Jeter hits in the clutch. Is that not true?
Get a grip.

I’m sure the “family” on the field was an idea from one of his great PR team assistants and should serve as proof that he needs to get rid of most, if not all of them. just makes him look like he’s trying to be above the others or the center of attention.

Ah, Pete, the columnist in the post is just as credible as you are, and the Newsday writer who didn’t mention or quote specific players. And yeah, I hate the post and think their writers are hacks. All they seem to ever do is write about A-Rod, imagine that! Now if only they’d tell me their opinion on the latest Springsteen tune, too…

Pete, I think it’s a little unfair to simply call Sucart a “yes-man and sycophant,” particularly given his special relationship with A-Rod and the history of losing his mother. He wasn’t simply a family member who tried to tap into A-Rod once he became famous, they have a long history together. So yes, he may do whatever A-Rod wants, but he is a little more than a freeloader or posse member. The article even says he is a really nice guy, even if he is occasionally flaky.

Pete, if you became extremely rich and famous, do you think you might employ a family member? What if he actually wanted to help you out instead of simply staying in your house and playing video games? Would you want him characterized as a yes-man and sycophant? Come on, Pete.

Newsday’s said bewildered? I’m sure the players were not at Alex but the media attention. Who cares if his kids showed up, let them be. When he wasn’t seen with them people said he was abandoning his kids so whatever. The media’s reaction is idiotic.

Everyone here missed the best part of the post, the photos, the youngest is copping a feel on mommy. Funny.

Blah blah blah, Pete hates Arod, blah blah blah we hate him for it, blah blah blah, we come back and read the blog no matter what, blah blah blah.

WHO CARES?!

Careful here Pete, defending your point of view from over sensitive fans is all well and good, but some of those comments you made are treading the fine line into Mike Francessa territory.

The emotion that A-Rod provokes in people is amazing. Whether it be good or bad, he strikes a nerve and the level it gets to can only happen if you really care about the person. Unfortunately, there’s no such thing as apathy in A-Rod’s world.
